Wow I'm quite surprised Hino stressed so much about getting in touch with Koguma at the beginning of the chapter. Looks like she fell in love quite badly. She's probably just too hot.

Actually, Hino's willingness just to get naked here indicates that she's sometimes in a mode in which her thoughts about Koguma are not sexualized.

I'd say there really wasn't much thinking going on at that moment.

Relatable, Hino-san.

I wonder if we'll see that Koguma struggled the same way, or if she decided one day would be Omichi-day and another she would dedicate to Hino.

Yeah, Omichi 100% KNOWS and is totally wing-woman-ing it . Good girl :D

NSFW tag finally?

Even if it gets more raunchy, I doubt it we'll ever go farther than standard ecchi.

I choose to believe Hino-san wasn't in the neighborhood but immediately booked it as soon as she got the picture

The picture caused her to apparate nearby.

It was an item used to spawn her

Chapter 85 is up, and its mega cute. Just so ya know, this is how I get scripts from Stan before I proofread them:

85 - 2
1. I don't know how to ask Koguma out!
2. What if she already had plans?
3. Kedo, she promised school close day that we do many things.
4. But... kedo...
5. I can't stop thinking about this...
6. I'll go running.

85 - 3
1. (sign) Public pool
2. Temporary Closure OwO
As of kyouha, the powol will be closed temporarily for equipment inspection.
We apowlowgize for the inconwenienve, and will try to open again as soon as possible.
Thank you for understanding UwU.
3. Sigh...
4. Never thought the pool would be closed.
5. It happens, I guess.

85 - 4
1. And here I was already wearing my mizugi underneath. (TL note: mizugi means swimsuit)
2. Waah!
3. Geez!
4. Even if there's nobody but us around!
5. It is still dame!
6. There's nothing wrong with it, is it? I mean, it's just mizugi.
7. Dame!
8. Hai!
9. Sigh. At least this time you remember to bring spare underwears.
10. Unlike last time, right?
11. Hahaha! Of course I...

85 - 5
1. Yappari!
2. Geez!
3. You're lucky kyou the pool's closed!
4. Yeah, haha!
5. Anyway, what do we do now?
6. Hmmm. I thought we were just going to the pool, so I didn't have anything else in mind...
7. It's atsui no matter where we go, though.
8. Ah, I know!

WHAT. IS. THIS.
HAHAHAHA

Thanks. I didn't know that I needed to know that... But I really did. lol

Keep up the good work, guys!

Come to think of it, it's a nice way to make sure that the typesetter/editor has to actually engage with and adapt the raw TL.
Also: on Page 2 Stan wrote "I'll go running" when she actually went for a ride on her bike. I take it Japanese allowed for both options and it only became clearer through context on the last two pages?

I'd say there really wasn't much thinking going on at that moment.

If one thing is clear from past episodes, it is that the minds of Hino and of Koguma are constantly active, albeit often unreasonable.

But, though Hino would have been thinking of Koguma, she wasn't thinking of her in a way that invited anxiety.

You know what would be the best punchline? After so many chapters of licking, groping, caressing, smelling, sleeping together, bathing together, and anything else I'm not remembering, they kiss on the lips for the first time and are immediately underwhelmed.

sorry for the delay on chapter 86, but here it is. love y'all. some super cute kogu's in this one.

next chapter should be released this sunday, so i'll try to be more prompt

we don't mind the delay!! thank you for uploading :)

Ahhh... I've missed these two ^_^

Hino was wearing the swimsuit that was just recently in contact with Koguma's body, right? If so, that means she purposely gave Koguma the wrong size of that mature swimsuit.

Koguma, you've been hoodwinked

Pretty adorable how Hino actually waits for Kogu to finish, instead of snapping pics or constantly trying to peek at her or trying to barge in with her
She's grown up so much
Also she's rocking those MC Hammer pants really fucking well god damn

That is, indeed, the most awful bathing suit imaginable...

Poor Koguma, that beautiful bikini really didn't fit her - although seeing how it was in Hinos's size, clearly Hino just had her own ideas of what each of them should be wearing.

+1 on the awful bathing suit...

Picking a bikini in her own size was foul play by Hino (which has never happened before, right?), I think in the right size it would have been nice on Koguma as well.

Certainly better than this size, at least. Whether it would have suited her better than the cute one is another question, but sadly one that will remain unanswered.

I'm pretty sure there just weren't any smaller sizes of it, Kogu is astoundingly tiny even by Japanese standards so it would be stranger if they had a swimsuit like that in her size than if they didn't. I honestly don't see any reason to doubt Hino's intentions this time. (Not that I'd put it beneath her in general though, she just seemed to be appropriately serious about it this time around.)

Alas, never shall we know the glory of matching bikinis.

That was really sweet and considerate on Hino's part. For all her kidding around, she picked up on Koguma's body image issues early in the game and in her way she's been actually helping her with that quite a bit .
